MARSHALL — Westbound traffic on Interstate Highway 20 in Harrison County was shut down for a while Friday as state troopers tried to stop a Louisiana man. The 80-year-old man from Webster Parrish, Louisana suffers from Alzheimers and his family was concerned about his safety. Authorities say the elderly man just got into a car and headed west. When the man wouldn’t stop for officers, they contacted Onstar who shut down the man’s car. He was taken to an area hospital.
